I think I posted this wrong, it was supposed to just be a link to MacRumors thread of Steve Jobs using a laptop with NS/OS. I wish I didn't get rid of my second hand IBM Thinkpad in the mid 2000s.

The laptop in the last picture is probably a Thinkpad 560 (https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:560).

agree with the thinkpad on the third picture. on the first two pictures, my guess would be TOSHIBA Tecra.

Besides the public presentations and marketing photos, there are very few pictures available.
Some photos that I have found on the internet:
1. "Steve Jobs using a NeXTstation computer"
